Still like these videos, been watching for at least 2 years now and the demos and footage is excellent. Like the longer videos. Keep them coming.

[@Jowevator3219]

I just discovered this channel. You have amazing content. Very still footage throughout each video. Well done, I look forward to more

[@andyhughes5885]

I have to say, i do enjoy your demolition videos esp., this one. This is one of the better operators i`ve seen who separates all the steel and aluminium as he goes along. Very efficient and productive. Thanks for uploading.

[@KLM817]

Pretty cool video! I loved the old Datsun sign they must have left up on the roof from years ago @26:45

[@richardcline1337]

KLM817 , that would be a great collector's item. Somebody would pay good money for it.

[@kurthuck2630]

No messing around with that operator! That is what I like to watch.

[@collin27]

Love these videos thanks for posting

[@k.c.beagle7102]

Some great footage in this video!!! Nicely done...

[@jonathancreveling8699]

The vending machine though lol

[@JohnZWetmore]

If it's in my thumbnail, it's in my video. 32:03

[@jayzonmeztdagh]

I’m surprised they were allowed to bust that vending machine like that without capturing the refrigerant. That is, unless that was taken care of already.

[@arnaldovinagre4350]

That COCA-COLA moment, was GREAT!!!!!

[@johnfoltz8183]

Have a Coke

[@CreamyPennePasta]

Where is it?

[@lachlanslightsandfans]

Good video I like them I made a couple but it’s not from start

[@johnfoltz8183]

A lot of buildings are being torn down in Montgomery county as many places are being redeveloped to mixed use.

[@arthureverett8220]

The neighbors will have a great Saab story to tell their families

[@johngardner2774]

I like this stuff a lot i love construction and watching a building being tor down

[@christinpenoyer9258]

Why are forming the business to the other business where is the people that weren't working in that job

[@jackw4504]

Loads of nice copper pipping there love watching all the scrap being ripped out

[@danefilander6306]

In any Demolition work separating all the metal, rubble and general materials in to separate piles.

[@harriharmsen9733]

Good Operator, great Job👍🏼

[@video99couk]

32:00 Coke machine destruction. I trust the refrigerant had been properly extracted?

[@brendajanes4139]

I have a feeling that it wasn't, considering that I have seen many fluorescent lamps shattering during this demo.

[@tjohn4398]

This operator acts like he's afraid to work that claw, that machine is made to work, he should just work the heck out of it.

[@CheswicksCigarettes]

Yeah it's hard watching other operators sometimes. I understand he's separating materials but shit get me in there! Unless the idea is to charge the client by the hour for run time. And someone would've paid for that sign!

[@godbluffvdgg]

:)...I asked if he was brain damaged...What idiot moves he's making! Using the machine to move one single piece of metal and stuff...Total idiot...

[@arnaldovinagre4350]

GOSH!!!! That's a lot of recycling material!!!!

[@richardcline1337]

Do they recycle any of the materials, metal and such from these buildings?

[@JohnZWetmore]

The debris is typically sorted into three things: metal to get melted down into new metal, concrete and masonry to get crushed and use as a sub-base for paving, and everything else to go to a landfill.

[@timidema6374]

Taking down the Saab dealership , it's Saabing when you are destroying it. Get it Saabing.

[@David-gv9ow]

Bad day for the coke vending machine

[@gabrielchiu2650]

R U sure again that it is a good thing to crush up mercury vapor bulbs and floruecent tubes and then spray it wit water so it goes in the enviroment?

[@user-aaa2ix1nk1d]

На 1:25:25 водитель испытывал истинное наслаждение от разрушения интерьера автосалона.

[@paulanthonyhaggerty]

This company should change their name to " A'l be Back"

[@BradfordGuy]

It's a good thing I do not work in demolitions; my backyard would be full of crap I think are interesting or worth something. Like the Coke machine and the poor NISSAN sign! That sign was worth likely close to a grand!

[@giacomovds]

27:24 sad vending machine why has nobody taken out that machine and it has a never chance to be used somewhere else

[@terrymraakovich8020]

Never seen a CBS wall collapse so easy, no rebar

[@Bannimann2]

And no concrete in them either, but then again, it's usually how these commercial buildings is designed to be constructed; fast and cheap with the emphasis on cheap.

[@jasinere35]

before demolition i would have stripped it out so that only the shell remains

[@nursejackie8891]

Unless it’s in a situation where a building is already falling down, wouldn’t it be nice if these property owners/demolition companies would allow the general public and/or nonprofits to come in before the demolition begins to salvage what could be of use or repurposed? Obviously signing a waiver would be needed for legal purposes, but I would think it could be beneficial to all parties involved especially with there being less waste going into the landfill.

[@brendajanes4139]

I so agree with you! I could have used those 8' lamps that were probably still good! Or other items that could be repurposed some how.

[@arthureverett8220]

Tons of scrappidy scrap to recycle. They’ll get a big check from the scrapyard

[@waldounit8]

At the 39:28 was that a rat there ?

[@JohnZWetmore]

I think it was just a loose bracket sliding downhill.

[@jeremiaheddy2034]

Here’s what I don’t get why do they have to nitpick around just to demolish the buildings

[@jeremiaheddy2034]

I say just be a bull in a China shop

[@JohnZWetmore]

It is common practice to keep the metal, masonry, and other material separate so they can be trucked off to three separate locations. It's easier to do during demolition than to try to sort them out afterwards, even though it slows things down.

[@tjohn4398]

Don't like this, more ads than video. Try again sometime. Every 15 to 20 seconds there is an ad, that ain't cool.

[@Bannimann2]

Use an ad blocker... And it's not the youtubers fault. KZbin have changed their rules - again - and throwing ad's in every video like crazy.

[@marcmcdonald2888]

I didn't get ads every 15 to 20 seconds. I did get ads but nowhere that frequently
